Just went to a open house unloading old coins.For $4 I picked this up because they said it was Uncirculated and I saw what appears to be an error on OBV across Lincoln face and REV near top of coin looks like letters or some kind of image. HELP?

Here is an overlay to see if there is damage from the opposite sides.

The bottom of the bust near the rim needs a better shot. Possible damage on the reverse. Note how the metal is over the rim beginning from the field?
